Netflix Fires Trans Activist Who Led Walkout

This person was not fired for the walkout, Netflix said.


They/Them were fired because they leaked highly confidential numbers about the viewership of the latest Dave Chappelle special. These are numbers Netflix almost never discloses, unless they want to brag.


Netflix workers planned the walkout to protest statements that its co-CEO Ted Sarandos made about Dave Chappelle’s recently released special, "The Closer." The company claims that it fired the employee in question because the company suspects that they leaked internal information.

"We have let go of an employee for sharing confidential, commercially sensitive information outside the company," a Netflix representative told TechCrunch. "We understand this employee may have been motivated by disappointment and hurt with Netflix, but maintaining a culture of trust and transparency is core to our company."

The documents that Them is suspected of leaking were leaked to suggest that no one really likes Dave Chappelle so Netflix shouldn't be spending so much money on him.

Netflix spent $24.1 million on the "The Closer," slightly more than the $23.6 million it paid for Chappelle's 2019 special, "Sticks & Stones." By comparison, the streaming service spent $3.9 million for "Inside," Bo Burnham's recent hour-and-a-half special. The nine-episode "Squid Game," which delivered the best debut in Netflix history, cost $21.4 million.

By Netflix's own measurement, "Sticks & Stones" had an "impact value" of $19.4 million, meaning it cost more than the value it generated, according to internal documents reviewed by Bloomberg. The company also evaluates its programs by "efficiency," which balances a show’s reach with its price-tag. On that scale, Chappelle's special scored 0.8 -- less than the break-even score of 1. By comparison, Burnham's "Inside" scored 2.8.

Ethan Van Sciver did a great podcast about what happens when you hire SJW political extremists in your company.

Here are some of the main points, with my own elaborations included.

1. Whatever your company used to be in the business of making, that is no longer your primary business. SJWs don't care about the widgets you're making. They take over your company and direct it to produce political extremist propaganda as its main product. Your company will only be permitted to produce widgets to the extent that widget-production helps fund your business' new primary mission of producing propaganda and repression.

If your widget production interferes with the production of politically extremist propaganda, they will sabotage your widget output.

2. SJWs always seek to either curry favor with the human resources and diversity enforcement departments of a company, or, better yet, infest and take over the these departments of a company.

Companies actually allow this because they put most of their diversity hires into human resources and diversity enforcement, thinking that's the way to appease SJWs, and that's where these largely-unskilled, largely mentally-ill incompetents can do the least harm.

That's 100% wrong.

If they were put in any other department -- any department charged with producing things of value-- their toxicity and dysfunction would cause the company to fire them for their malignance. They subtract value; they do not add to it.

But these corporations keep assigning them to the very departments were toxicity and dysfunction are rewarded.

And this, these toxic, dysfunctional people are allowed to rise and exert authority over the previously healthy and productive parts of the company.

3. SJW "employees" will ultimately invert the boss-employee relationship, making themselves the bosses who tell the on-paper CEO and president what they'll be doing now. They achieve this through socio-political blackmail and threats to destroy the company through a coordinated reputational damage operation.

We see this all the time. The SJW extremists are increasingly brazen about asserting that they, not the CEO or president or shareholders, run Bartertown.

Note that Netflix is actually covering up the name of this particular fired SJW. The name should be made known, so that other companies will know this particular person will attempt to harm your company unless Them's political demands are met.

But no, Them will be protected so that they can go on to toxify the next company.

And all of these weakling assholes will continue hiring these people and letting them effectively declare themselves the management of the company.

I am not sure about the order of operations on this assertion. In my experience, as near as I can tell, HR is the *first* organization to be subverted, and then it filters out from there. HR is the reservoir that gets poisoned and then it flows downstream from there, first through "diversity mandates" for hiring outside of their own group, and then through the installation of mid-line executives who are down with the struggle.

The woke folk don't seek to curry favor with HR, HR clears the road for them to swarm in and start doing what they do all while HR actively protects them.

26 It's not like Netflix has ever been profitable.

This scale, the impact value, isn't real money. It's assumed impact based on watch patterns and some kind of assumption that x number of subscriber dollars should be attributed to it. The accounting of streaming giants has got to be a nightmare.

This sort of diversity hire is probably insanely common with this company. I'd be betting their troubles are just starting.

They're drawn to careers based around creating fantasy worlds and fakes stories, much like the rest of their lives.

Same phenomenon, different root cause. Both are in debt up to their eyeballs and don't much money - and that's only in years they aren't losing billions.

In the case of Netflix, it is first-mover advantage, massive subscriber counts, and full confidence by investors (for now) that it will turn the corner and start making oodles of money.

In the case of Tesla, it's the sexiness of the product among the smart set in combination with Elon Musk's reality distortion field.

78 Human Resources Departments tell you right up front that they are trouble from the beginning.

Human Resources. That right there tells you the sort of attitude that is prevalent. You're not a person and altho Human is part of the name they don't care about humans. What they do care about is what they were taught after they found that their European Art History Major was worthless in their new major Business Admin. Or Social Welfare administration which is numbers. You and everyone in the company is a number. And the correct numbers must be present or the company is wrong and must be chastised and put back on track to rightness.

This is where the socialism starts. This is where the cancel culture and political correctness starts. In Human Resources.

I believe that removing those departments from all companies would increase productivity by a 100% overnight. Sure a few bad hair do ugly women would be out of a job but they can go work on an assembly line or at Walmart like everyone else does.

It predates modern wokism and goes back to the old-fashioned PC push. "The student picked up their pencil" became acceptable even though it is entirely *wrong* because it solved a problem of their own creation. The traditional construction if the sex of the student was not known would be "the student picked up his pencil." The disambiguated correct construction would be, "the student picked up his or her pencil."

But the former is ultra-bad because it's sexist. The latter is awkward and unpleasant. So the plural - their - was substituted. Now, of course, the latter is also ultra-bad because it asserts a gender binary and thus now they declare that the the plural "their" is in fact correct.

132 I can corroborate the assertions made by the Van Sciver podcast. The description of the infiltration of a corporation by SJW agents is accurate. This exact situation is unfolding in my life as my wife's company, a large professional services firm, has been confronting HR activism, recently embodied in the hire of a diversity officer into their corporate management senior echelon. This person's sole purpose is to suck funding and other resources out of core business initiatives, activities that would have improved the performance of the business, and redirect those resources toward social engineering projects. Said projects have nothing to do with the performance metrics of the business, minus shielding it from the outrage mob. The very outrage mob to which the diversity officer belongs to and empowers. This is quite literally the equivalent of professional, white collar extortion.

139 Guess he decided he had to virtual signal against Jews while making light of the transpeople, instead of be funny.

Chappelle's whole last special was a "I had a trans friend who killed herself" apologia about how he's not really trans. I suspect that's right ultimately. As near as I can tell, Chappelle's beef isn't about trans people per se, it's about the encroachment on black people's absolute privilege to say what they want about any other tribe without any pushback. Over the last 20 years or so, blacks (as a demo) have gotten to lecture everyone on race while saying things about race and sex that no one else could get away with. Trans activists more or less insisted that Chapelle, a black man, be subjected to the same anti-speech rules as everyone else, and Chapelle cannot stand it. In his world view, he and his tribe at the top of the victim stack and cannot be displaced. His specials give the impression that his principle obsession is hating crackers.

144 I think trannies get "in" to certain companies because they're seen as being "gay" at first. By the time people realize they're also batshit crazy, it's too late. And in this day and age where companies can't fire certain "types" (except for straight white males) then they're stuck with them unless they can prove incompetence or criminality.

This is one reason why there seems to be so many all at once. They were hiding beneath the cover of being Gay. How's that for a mind bender; hiding in the closet with the gays as their skin suit.

Now suddenly all those wacky people who you thought were just flamers or borderline but creative as hell now come out as stone cold sociopaths and they're too imbedded in the companies to excise them quickly and cheaply. So we're stuck with 3 way bathrooms like we got stuck with low flush toilets.

$25/$1000 is 2.5%, so the $80k assessment increase would have resulted in a $2,000 addition to the tax bill.

If you make under $50,000-75,000, it's not bad (you can qualify for reduced-cost stuff like insurance and utility bill relief). I made $3,560 last year so no tax burden. This year I'm looking at $25,000-ish. But with low property taxes and some savings, it's doable. You would not believe how broad the support for Prop 13 is; even many lefties support it -- the ones who realize what they'd be paying otherwise.

303 CEOs, Corporate Boards, Board of Directors, etc., who all acquiese are no longer in those positions but at the mercy of whoever has the loudest, squeaky wheel of a voice. The only correct answer is STFU and go to your room as the adults are talking.

That's why I've always said I'd last about 48hours as a politician since my first directive would be to cancel every directive with all the catch phrases and replace them all with one simple paragraph: We are all equal and all on the same plan and all have the same exact opportunities, no go forth and do great things. No affirmative action, no welfare for those that don't legitimately need it, no extended unemployment for those able to work, no special treatment for the alphabet clan, none. Thus my short career as a politician. LOL

If they get that (and they will eventually), it isn't really about the money so much as it is about forcing every car to have a GPS transceiver installed for monitoring at all times.

But the money is real, too. Americans, depending on which number you use, drive between 12k and 14k miles per year on average.

So at eight cents per mile, that means the "average motorist" will pay $960-$1,120 per *year* on the mileage levy. Ouch ouch ouch ouch

No, it isn't. There is no such thing as "reverse racism." Period. End of statement.

As a concept, "reverse racism" is itself racist. Think about the implication of that term. The implication is that white-on-other bigotry is the natural state, while other-on-white bigotry is some kind of aberrant reversal of the normal condition. That is utter bullshit. There is no such thing as "reverse racism." There's just racism, and it moves any direction depending on who is bigoted against whom.

366 1. Whatever your company used to be in the business of making, that is no longer your primary business. SJWs don't care about the widgets you're making. They take over your company and direct it to produce political extremist propaganda as its main product. Your company will only be permitted to produce widgets to the extent that widget-production helps fund your business' new primary mission of producing propaganda and repression.

This means, if you extend the metaphor of a company as a body, SJW is a virus .

If true, and if the CAFE goal is 30 miles per gallon, that is equivalent to a $2.40 per gallon tax, added to the already existing taxes.

369 I doubt they'll explain it. In CA we've had to dial 1+area code for years, even when we're in the same area code. Why the 1? Why can't the stupid phone company program their systems to just add that in? F them. I guess I'm glad to have been around when it was just 7 numbers, and 2 of those were letters.

It happens when multiple area codes serve the same geographic area. Larger areas - first big cities, then even more regions because of cell phone number demand - ran out of phone numbers. So they need a new area code to get more, and then there is no way to determine *which* "867-5309" you wanted to dial, because both of them are in the same territory and handled by the same exchanges. So the area code becomes a mandatory part of dialing so the phone equipment can determine which party you actually wanted to call.

Yup. For all of the three-digit specialty numbers (411, 911, the new 988, etc.), they must not overlap with an existing exchange. If they do, the existing exchange has to change its prefix or the area has to move to ten-digit dialing if they aren't using it already. Those three-digit services are priority services, and so number interpretation stops as soon as the third number is processed and then the call is routed.

It was 1946 and this lost educational film on despotism was required curriculum at every high school in America. The associated test, 11 pages quizzed students on the concepts. By 1967, this film was removed from all libraries. The term despotism has since become unfashionable.

This trend is alarming, even ominous. As soon as the generations who actually experienced WW2 have died, that leaves we younger generations who mostly forget that it all ever happened. Excellent film (4TV) needs distribution to all high schools in America.

429 If I understand it correctly, 988 is going to be the suicide hotline's version of 911. And if you live in an area that uses 988 as a prefix, you're going to be accidentally dialing the suicide hotline every time you try to call 988-XXXX.

All these things are is a place for emo boys and girls to get an internship for the summer or weekends and for the terminally lonely because they're creepy, ugly, nasty or just plain repugnant to have somewhere to call and harass somebody for a while.

462 It was 1946 and this lost educational film on despotism was required curriculum at every high school in America. The associated test, 11 pages quizzed students on the concepts. By 1967, this film was removed from all libraries. The term despotism has since become unfashionable.

This trend is alarming, even ominous. As soon as the generations who actually experienced WW2 have died, that leaves we younger generations who mostly forget that it all ever happened. Excellent film (4TV) needs distribution to all high schools in America.

"Whatever your company used to be in the business of making, that is no longer your primary business. SJWs don't care about the widgets you're making. They take over your company and direct it to produce political extremist propaganda as its main product. Your company will only be permitted to produce widgets to the extent that widget-production helps fund your business' new primary mission of producing propaganda and repression."

499 483 I hate to say it but I'm at the point where I'm rooting for Laundrie to get away.

C'mon you know this Gabbie person was just a real pain to deal with. One of those people who think they know everything and that you're a dumby and Brian was only into the sex (moron manual note: never stick your d**k in Crazy) and he had just about had it with her sh*t so a walk along a cliff trail turns into a shouting match then a couple of shoves and whoops there she goes and he strangles her while she's down or does it just to shut her up for 5 minutes.

They both seemed like they'd be annoying people to be around for any length of time. I still don't understand why their families didn't try to talk them out of taking the trip together. They already had a history of fighting, and the plan to spend months together on the road, crammed into a very tight space together 24/7 was just such an obvious invitation to disaster. That kind of forced, non-stop togetherness would be hard on a stable, emotionally mature couple -- which these two certainly weren't.

I have 4 sons. Whoever wrote it, the relationships and dynamics among the 4 were spot on. #1 was the responsible one, #2 was the goofball, #3 was the one who tried to please everyone and who actually was in charge of the entire family, and #4 was the one who played innocent because he could get away with anything as the baby.

Brian strikes me as an impulse out of control kind of guy. Silent for the most part and easy going. Until you push him too far.

And Gabbie might've been one of those chicks that just love to push guys like that to the edge. It gives them a thrill cause they know he's capable of some damage. It's a well documented psychosis. For both of them. And I think both families realized it but couldn't stop them.

I was just noting that the FBI is an incompetent bunch of busy bodies who deserve every loss they can rack up cause they're dangerous to freedom and liberty.

525 Willowed time, but Chappell's show would probably have had more viewers if the SJW and pedo crowd had not already convinced so many normal people to cancel Netflix. I have read that Chappell mostly tells "jokes" about how much he hates white people, so I doubt I would have enjoyed it anyway.

527 Worst part of this is that they paid $3.9 million to Bo Burnham for a horribly unfunny one dork show.

The Gen Z weirdos like it for some unknown reason. My daughter tried to get us to watch it and I couldn't get through 10 minutes.

What absolute TRASH

Posted by: deadrody at October 18, 2021 03:51 PM (V9901)

528 Watched them.
Chappelle is racist as hell... Funny though.
His pronunciation of Jussie Smollet's name though... Award worthy...
JUICY SMOY-YAY....
Still laughing.

529 Yes, for anyone unfamiliar with Bo Burnham, DO NOT under any circumstance watch any of his moronic trash.

He's a nihilistic Gen Z, the world is doomed, so look at me I'm so depressed "cOmEdiAn" that doesn't write "jokes" and whose tired schtick is not remotely funny in any way.

Look at it this way - if you dislike people like Amy Schumer and Sarah Silverman - they are INFINITELY more funny than Burnham.

Posted by: deadrody at October 18, 2021 03:53 PM (V9901)

530 Ps. Did cancel netflix after they donated 3 mil to f..kong Newsom. Subscribed again because wife likes it.
